>>they need to continuously print money and that's a recipe' for hyper inflation.
Why should we be afraid of that bogeyman? It's an obvious solution to a contrived problem- once people agree that the whole current financial system is a contrivance that no longer seems oriented towards the public that owns and funds it. Perhaps the public can consider asserting its right to change a financial system just as it changes a government that no longer resonates with the electorate.
"... They ne'er cared for us
yet: suffer us to famish, and their store-houses
crammed with grain; make edicts for usury, to
support usurers; repeal daily any wholesome act
established against the rich, and provide more
piercing statutes daily, to chain up and restrain
the poor. If the wars eat us not up, they will; and
there's all the love they bear us."
-- Shakespeare: Coriolanus, Act 1, scene 1
